Kia Stinger: Forward Collision-avoidance Assist (FCA) / Brake operation
- In an urgent situation, the braking system enters into the ready status
for prompt reaction against the driver’s depressing the brake pedal.
- The FCA provides additional braking power for optimum braking performance
when the driver depresses the brake pedal.
- The braking control is automatically deactivated, when the driver sharply
depresses the accelerator pedal, or when the driver abruptly operates the steering
wheel.
- The braking control is automatically canceled when risk factors disappear.
The driver should always exercise caution when operating the vehicle, even though
there is no warning message or warning alarm.

all situations or avoid all collisions. It is the responsibility of the driver to
safely drive and control the vehicle.
WARNING

increases the risk of an accident.

weather and road conditions may affect the operation of the FCA system.
